Travel/Lodging

Newport is not an airport city. There are three options: fly to Raleigh, New Bern, or Jacksonville. Raleigh is the biggest airport and is two hours from the coast. New Bern and Jacksonville are smaller airports that connect through Charlotte, NC and are a 45 minute drive from the coast. We recommend renting a car from the airport or, if you fly to the closer airport, work it out for someone to come pick you up. We encourage guests to stay in either Morehead City or Atlantic Beach. There are rental houses, motels, and hotels, some on the beach, some on the sound, and some close to both. We also have space on the wedding property (Manda's Dad's house) for tent camping.

Flight

We used to use the public access near this hotel to get to a good surfing spot when I was in high school. We are are staying at this hotel during the wedding. They don't rent blocks but if we book early we can fill up the hotel!

House Or Rental

Airbnb

Morehead City, NC
 

Airbnb has plenty of options for house/condo/apt rentals on Atlantic Beach and in Morehead City. These two towns are on/close to the beach and are straight shots from Raleigh and New Bern.

House Or Rental

VRBO Morehead City

Cute rentals in a cute city with an up and coming downtown area. 15 minutes from the beach and the wedding venue.

Rental Car

Camper Van Rentals

Another option that combines lodging and car rental would be a camper van rental. There is space for a few campers on the property that we can provide power for. There are also many places on or near the beach that allow overnight RV/Camper Van parking for a fee. There are other options for companies to rent from as well: https://rvshare.com/rv-rental/north-carolina

Good reviews and right on the ocean! Less expensive than Windjammer but not as updated. Right next door to the Windjammer!

Campgrounds

There are a few campgrounds in the area should you choose to tent or RV/camper van camp. Take a look at recreation.gov or other private campgrounds in the area using a google search.

Wyatt and I both held summer jobs here back when we lived in the area. It was called PepperTree back then and we had the lucky job of setting up beach chairs and umbrellas for people staying at the resort. Best job ever working on the beach during summer vacation!
